Why do I weep ?-o leave the vine
Whose clusters o'er io bend
Th'e myrtle-yei oh! callt mine !
The flowers ~luvo to tend.
A ihousand thougfits of c11 things dear
Like shadows o'er ine sweep;
I Jeave, my sunny chilhood here,
O, therefore 1e me weep!
I leave a Sister! we have playcd
Through many a joyous hour,
Vreri-the silvery green or the olive shade
Hung dim o'er fount and bower.
Yes, thou and 1, by stream, by shore,
In song, in prayer, in sleep,
Have been as we may be no more
Kind Sister, let ine weep !
I. leave thee, Father! eve's bright moon
Must now light other feet,
Wit h'the gathered grapes, ned lyre in tune,
Thy homeward steps to grcet.
Thou, in whose voice, to bless thy child,
Lay tones or love sn deep,
Whose eyes o'er all amy youth hath smiled,
t leave thee! let.me wee p !
lother ! I leave thee! on thy breast
Pouring out joy and wo,
I have found that holy place of rest
Still changeless-yet I go !
Lips that have lulled oe with you strain,
Eyes that have-wached my sleep
Will earth give love like your3 a-tin ?
Sweet mother ! let ine weep!
o Come to the Mountains.

O 'oi'e ta the iountains,
There're are hoary and old,
And stand up like giatts
So starely and hold ;
The dark moss of ages
Clings fast to the sides,
Where storms spend their fury,
And the hurricane rides.
'0 c'bme 'to the mountains,
,They have stood through all time,
IHave heard ages death toll
And great changes chime;
They tell you long stories
Of earth when 't was young,
And legends unchronicled
Dy histcry's tongee.
O come to the mouataios.
Their rocky peaks stand
Like faithful Sight watchers,
To guard the low land;
They catch.in their strong arms
*The chill winter's breath
And break the rough tempest
From the valley beneath.
PrAYtKG TiHE DEVtL.-WeC were a
good deal amused at an uncdote ne
heard the other day, of a cei tain prea cher
limits of old Kenuky. He had preach,
-ed in his parish many years, and of
course run shot t of' the eloqluence so
much needed to' keep his hearers awak
and astonished. Let himt preach ever
so well now, it ma~de no dit'eren ce, they
had got used to hinm and used to sleep -
ing; and sleep they would, to his great
annoyance,. At last lie hit upon an
expedient to biing 'cam tip standing, as
the sayiug is. H o pa octured a small tin
Wiistle, which I~e took wihh hint into
thie pn!pit, and after takir~g hais text anid
"blaizing aw1ay" until hiis lungs were
sore and his heatrers all comtfortably
dozinig and nodding approval to eacha
other, heo suddenly drew it forth and
gave a shrill toot-a-toot In an intstant
the whlole c.ngregtion wias awake and
tUpon their feet, starinig at the minister,
at each other, tand wondainitg what in
the name of' pickles and humtan natmae,
as Sam Slick says, was to come next.
-'You're a .set of' smart specimtens of'
htumantity, an't youl" said the divineo
wvhistler, as he slowly gazed arounitd oan
his astonishted assemablage. "Whien I
preach the Gospel to yon, you all go to
sleep ; but tho'moment I go to playing
the devil, you're all wvidet a-.ake, tup anid
a coming like a rush of harnet with a
po!c in their nest !"
CUrTIN IT Snon-r.-A certaiat bar

with his long yarns w hile he mantipulat
ed their heads and faces. One day an
old codger came in, took his seat, and
ordered a shtave atnd hair cut. rThe
barber went to wvork, and begatn, at the
same time, one of his long stor ies, to th~e
no little dissatisfaction of the old gentle
mail, whlo, bccomsiag irritated at the
barber, said
"Cut it short."
"Yes," sair," said the b-uber, con
tinuing the yarn until then chd centleman
agn sang out, "Cut it shtor t !
"Yes sir,"-clipping a wa y, and gab
bing the faster.
"Cut it short, cut -it short, I say," said
the old gent.
"Yes sir," said the bat ber, going on
with his story,
'-Will you cut it short, blast you!"
bawled the oI genat itn a rage'.
"Can't sir," said the barber, "for if
you look in the. glass, you'il see that I've
cut. it all of."
And to his horror, npnn lookine itt
the glass. the old gent found his hiair all

it, that consumption and all affections of the
lungs can not only be cured, but they are as ea

The operation of a single bottle, which costs

fact; and even a single dose gives evidence of
its extraordinary influence in arresting and
eradicating the nalady by the i.nmediate relief
which it athords- This is no quack or secret
remedy. Dr. Hastings, its discoverer, is one of
the most enmintent physicians of the nage, and
has made a full disclosure or its history, and all
its component parts to the world, not wishing
to incur the responsibility of confining to himt

calculated to do such universal good. And
such has been the wonderful result of its rpe.

COMPOUND EX T RAUT 0F'
The most extraordinary Medicine in the World.
:-This Extract is put up in quart bottles;
it is six times cheaper, pleasanter. and war
ranted superior to any sold. It cures with
out vomiting, purging, sickening, or debihta-,
ting the Patent.
The great beauty and superiority of this
Sarsaparilla over all other medicine is, that
while it eradicates d.sease, it invigorates the
body. It is one of the very hest -
SPRING AND SUlMMER MEDICININES
Ever known; it not cnly purifies the whole
system, and strengthens the person, but it
creates new, pure and rich blood-; a power
possessed by no other medicine. And in this
lies the grand secret of its wonderful success,
It has performed within the last fivo years,
more than 100,000 cures of severe cases of
disease; at least 15,000 were considered in
curable. It has saved the lives of more than
5,000 children during the past season.
10,000 Casce of General Debility and
want of Nervous Energy.
Dr. Townsend's Satsaparilla invigorates the
whole system permanently. To-those who
have lost their muscular energy by the use
of medicine or indiscretion committed in
youth, or the excessive indulgence of the pas
sicns, and brought on a general physical pros
tration of the nervous system, lassitude, want
of ambition, fainting sensations, premature
decay and decline, hastening towards that
fatal discase. Consumption, can be 'entirely
restored by this pleasant remedy This Sar
sa parilla is far superior to any INVIGORA
TING CORDIAL, as it removes and invigo
rates the system, gives activity to the limbs,
and atiaength to the -muscular system, in' a
mout extraordinary degree.

PAIN CANNOT EXIST.
A gentleman in the Smith of Europe anA
Palesi ie, in 1830, heard so mnch said in tii
latter place n faivorofJEW DAVID'S PLAS
TER, and of the (as he considered) niaculob*
cures he hadl performed, that lie was induced
to try it on his own person, for a Long aitd
Liver Affection, the removal of which had been..
the chierobject or his journey, but whlha~dlh
resisted the euial and delicious clime.
He accordingly applied a plaster on the rihi.
of his chest where the pain was seated, anoiW'
between the shoulders, and one over the riq'"tj
of the liver. In the mean time he'drank frele
of an herb tea of laxative qualities., He sobi
found his health improving, and in a few weeks
his cough left him; the sallowness of lis 'kin
disappeared, his pain was removed, and. b
health became permanently reiterated.
The following is from Air. Worstel, editor.
of the Massillion Gazette, Ohio.
